Book donated to Wilkinson County Correctional Facility

I want to thank my friend, Michael J. O'Brien and the University Press of Mississippi for donating copies of his book, We Shall Not Be Moved: The Jackson Woolworth's Sit-In and the Movement It Inspired (University Press of Mississippi, 2013), to Wilkinson County Correctional Facility (WCCF). We received the books on Monday, Dec. 16, 2019. O'Brien's book is probably the most detailed and comprehensive resource available on the famous Woolworth's Sit-in, which took place in 1963. It is highly recommended for anyone interested in Mississippi history and the civil rights movement.
